I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at 1Password in Jun 2023
Interview
The interview process was pleasant. The interviewer was a senior software engineering manager who asked mostly behavior questions and past experiences. No leetcode or technical questions are involved in the 45 minutes. However, the issue comes after the interview. A recruiter reached out to me to congratulate me as one of their top candidates and asked me if the proposed salary aligns with my expectation. So naturally, I happily accepted, except, it wasn't an offer... The following Monday, I received a rejection email. This is honestly quite a baffling experience as I have turned down other job offers for 1Password, just so I can get rejected. You can imagine how angry I was. At least three other candidates have the exact same experience as I did, and this is unacceptable. So for the recruiters, either make it clear in the email that it is not an official offer, or simply, don't send that first email. This really makes us think 1password is irresponsible and untrustworthy.
Very organized through the entire process. Started with an hr screening which went well, then 3 other interviews with the hiring manager, department head and leader from a diff department.
It was pretty straightforward.
There were 4 steps.
I had a Initial phone screen with a recruiter.
After that I had a interview with hiring manager.
Then I got a technical home assignment. I had to finish it within 48 hours.
After submitting my assignment they scheduled two 1 hour Technical round including coding and behavioral interview.

Question 1
Questions about constructive feedback, conflict management, a time you failed, pretty standard Behavioral.
The technical is about the assessment and my thought process when doing it, also if I had more time what I would do. Emphasis on testing.
